Kennedy locations in Dallas and Fort Worth

September, 2013. With a rented car I visited all locations in Dallas and Fort Worth related to the crime of the century, the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I made lots of pictures; fifty of them are on this page. In 2009 I travelled to New Orleans, where Lee Harvey Oswald lived. The photos of that journey can be found here.

My name is Perry Vermeulen, born Dec. 08, 1982. I wrote two books on the assassination in 2008 and 2012, both published in the Netherlands.

A large Dutch article about my trip to Dallas and Fort Worh, published in Eindhovens Dagblad, can be found here.

Enjoy the photo’s – please contact me if you’d like to use them on a website or in a publication: info@perryvermeulen.nl.

Best wishes,
Perry Vermeulen

Kennedy Locations: 50 photos

Dealey Plaza

The John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza in Dallas and the City Hall Municipal Building, where Jack Ruby shot Lee Harvey Oswald

Greyhound Dallas, where Oswald took a cab after the assassination. He went to his rooming house on Beckley Avenue. I spoke to Pat Hall, who knew Oswald when he lived in the rooming house of her grandmother.

Texas Theatre; across the street is Top Ten Records, where officer J.D. Tippit made his last phone call.

Parkland Hospital and the corner of Tenth and Patton Street, where officer J.D. Tippit was killed.

214 West Neeley Street, where Oswald lived. The famous backyard photos were made here.

Lee Harvey’s, a bar in Dallas. And Campisi’s Restaurant, the Italian restaurant that Jack Ruby frequently visited, owned by the mafia family Campisi.

Shannon Rose Hill, cemetery where you can find the grave of Lee Harvey Oswald, located between Dallas and Fort Worth. Near this location, you can find the Ozzie Rabbit Lodge. Every wall in this pub is filled with paintings and drawings related to Kennedy and Oswald.

Marina Oswald lives in Rockwall. I visited her; she was not interested in an interview.

Fort Worth: the Texas Hotel and the JFK Tribute in front of the hotel.

Ol’ South Pancake House in Fort Worth and the Cabana Hotel in Dallas. Both places were, according to some, visited by Jack Ruby short before the assassination. In these rumors he met criminals of the mafia on both occasions.
